Michale Graves

Bit of a musical post. As people who know me know I am a rather big fan of the Misfits whom are a horror punk band and have been a big influence to many other bands over the 30 or so years they have been about.  There have been two incarnations of the Misfits, the first being the original lineup with Glenn Danzig as the front man and many years later Jerry Only recreated the Misfits with a new young front man named Michale Graves.

These two periods in time are funnily enough known as old misfits and new misfits heh. Anyhoo this incarnation of the Misfits didnt last for too long and Mr Graves was gotten rid of due to some rift or whatever. Now many fans hold onto the old misfits lineup and albums and spit at the new stuff they did with Mr Graves, this is mainly because they are old and stupid, I am not one of these people. The Misfits are still about but Jerry Only sings now which is  just funny to watch, i dub this current period as ‘the shitfits’.

So what happend to Michale Graves I hear you scream as the fascination of this post grips your neck heh, well i shall tell you. 

After doing a few solo projects he mainly now tours about doing acoustic sets playing all the songs he wrote in the misfits and all his stuff since. Now Michale Graves is not the best guitar player in the world, nor is he the best singer but he hits a nerve with me. Sometimes you just click with an artist or band and they have an effect on you, Michale Graves is one of these people and as a song writer he should be a hell of a lot more well known than he is. 

I urge you to buy this album and give it a listen perhaps he wont shine any light for you but maybe he might,,, :D

Here are some of his songs:
